Thank a Mom
Share your story
A special thank you to my sister, who showed up for me in one of the most vulnerable moments of my life. After giving birth to Emilio, I developed postpartum preeclampsia with severe features and had to be rushed back to the hospital, where I stayed for five more days while my baby had already been discharged. During a time when I was supposed to be home enjoying those first moments with my newborn, I was instead trying to recover and get better. But my sister stepped in. She took Emilio in and cared for him while I was in the hospital, giving me one less thing to worry about during a time when I needed to focus on healing. As a mom herself, she understood how precious those first days are, and she still made room in her life to show up for me and my baby. I will never forget that. Sometimes, motherhood is also about the village that surrounds us. And I am so grateful that my baby and I have you in ours. Thank you for loving Emilio, caring for him, and taking care of me in a way I will always carry in my heart. I love you, sis @jolie
